so just curious, what type/brand of tennis racquets do you use?

please state brand, size, type etc etc
i know its all "perference" but if possible be a little more detail on why you chose that specfic racquet


**i was lazy to update, but i got the Yonex RDS 003, and used it for a while. its freaking great!! loved everything about it.**


p.s. if you own mutiple racquets, vote base on your favorite one

Prince original graphite 93 sq. inches. It's stock 12.2 oz strung, but I have around...8 inches in the head and none in the handle, but with multiple grips so it adds some grams. This is the original '87 one, not the one manufactured right now...

I have 2 that is the current gen of 'POG' and let me tell you, it feels like a 9 oz. tweener racket. I have literally 2-3 feet of lead at 3 and 9 and a couple of feet of lead in the handle to counter balance. Still feels crappy on off shots. They are NOT stock 12.2 no matter what it saids.

I love my head racquet. <3 Even though looking at it for the past 2 years makes me think it's ugly... I think it'll be very hard to part with it if I ever do decide to splurge on a new one.

If I do get a new racquet though~ I want a babolat or a wilson one, hehh. one from the w-line. those make me feel pretty. happy.gif

Yonex makes some nice racquets
I use the RDX 500 MP as my main racquet, its somewhat head light
I wanna use the new yonex racquet

Second racquet is head liquidmetal radical mp, gotta say head liquidmetal has to be one of the greatest tennis racuqets created
